Nice tutorial man, of course there are so many other search engines out there, I already knew from the title you were gonna do the most popular.

Although I'm surprized you didn't add Ask, or dogpile to the list.

Thanks for the Tutorial !

There is one more thing you can do on 'Google'.
If you write 'define: funny' , it will give you the definition(s) of the word(s).

Thanks,

I'm surprized you haven't heard of Bing man, it's on tv commercials all the time, it's in loads of articles on the web, and when you heard to the microsoft website http://www.live.com/ it takes you to bing.
